Looks good, feels fine
An exceptional item in terms of functionality, but it lacks the feel of something premium, as expected by the low-price mainstream consumer market this item is advertised for.Buttons feel good, the paddle gear shifters are considerably quieter than the 458 TX and the F1 wheel rims. I only have an issue with the feel of it. When using gloves, the rubberised feeling of the wheel is no longer an issue and it begins to feel right, like a racing wheel.Controlling of the car improves with this wheel for any street or racing car in comparison to the TX wheel because of the increased weight, size and roundness which adds more of a natural feel.It most certainly can be used for lower speed single-seater racing, but is not as optimised for faster Formula racing styles (but it still can definitely be used for Formula racing if you wish).It is a great wheel rim designed by Thrustmaster. I fully recommend it if you are seeking something better in all aspects than the standard TX wheel rim, especially when racing street and GT class cars. For owners of the T500 wheel rims, this is slightly smaller, but it feels more race-worthy with the addition of the Ferrari logo and the metal paddle shifters attached to the wheel so please consider it as a supplement to the existing T500 rim rather than a required replacement when deciding if it is right for you. I certainly do not regret my purchasing decision.

This is a great wheel. The quality of this item is superb
This is a great wheel. The quality of this item is superb, and it is a good looking, simple, no nonsense wheel. It has a textured rubber grip with paddle gear shifters. It has a nice weighty feel to it, and it gives you a good feeling of confidence while driving. It is excellent value for money, and in my opinion, it is better than the F1 wheel add on that Thrustmaster also make. I can wholeheartedly recommend this product.

Compared to the T500 stock wheel I just lost this is a small wheel but the buttons feel nice and so does the shifter action

Love this wheel - as every one says it is so much more substantial than the standard rim - its heavier weight greatly enhances the "driving feel" when playing Forza 5 - everything about it oozes quality - well worth £65 - and it looks so cool to boot - buy one today
